Birthday Weekend
We had a wonderful stay at this cabin! The location is perfect for those who love being by the lake. The serene environment and beautiful views made it all the more enjoyable. One of the highlights of our trip was visiting Tahquamenon Falls, which was about 45 minutes away. Additionally, the cabin's proximity to local stores meant we had no trouble finding everything we needed for a comfortable stay. We had a couple questions and the host was very quick to respond. The cabin itself was clean, cozy, and well-equipped with all the necessary amenities. We felt right at home and appreciated all the thoughtful touches. We highly recommend this place for a peaceful and fun getaway!

Lakefront stay on Manistique Lake
The house was just the right size for us and our pets. Plenty of property to exercise the dogs. The interior and furniture were up to date & the master bed was comfortable. The washer & dryer was a great bonus. The place could have a little more space for personal belongings & a pantry for dry food but overall everything was well stocked (dishes, pots, pans, utensils) and everything was in excellent condition & working order. We would not hesitate to stay here again.
